DC Film & TV Universes Will Remain Separate

Geoff Johns, Chief Creative Officer at DC, has stated that there will be no crossover between DC television and film, emphasizing that they are each “their own universes.”

IGN asked if it were feasible that fans may see one version of the Justice League on the big screen and another on the small as The Flash and Arrow expand. He replied. “You’ll see a lot of DC universe characters [on The Flash and Arrow]. You won’t see Batman or Superman. We’re on production on Batman V Superman now. So you’ll see characters like The Atom or Firestorm, but no not Batman or Superman right now [on TV].”

“It’s a separate universe than film so that the filmmakers can tell the story that’s best for film,” Johns said. “While we explore something different in a different corner of the DC universe.”

“We will not be integrating the film and television universes,” Johns said definitively.
